About this metric

Composite Repeatability combines launch-angle, spin-axis, and ball-speed-residual variation into a single score. Higher = more uniform across all axes. Best used to identify players whose entire swing — not just one component — is exceptionally repeatable.

Stuff+ 97.9 · Composite Repeatability -0.16

Below-median Stuff+ paired with high variation — the toughest combination in the population.
